D17 stalling

Hi guys, I"m having a little issue with a tractor I just bought, it starts and runs fine and when you drive it on the level it"s fine, but if you try to go up any kind of an incline it powers out and stalls even in low gear with nothing behind. Would it be a fuel issue or something else? It"s a 1961 d17
 
Fuel tank to low of fuel??? But yes it does sound like a problem of some sort in the fuel system. Could also be caused by an air cleaner that needs to be checked and oil changed and water removed
 
I"ll have to try the choke next time I run it. I took the bottom of the air cleaner off and changed the oil but how do you clean the air filter part, it looks like a bunch of steel wool or something in there and I don"t know how to get it out.
